Overview:

Yuu is smart, creative, and unconventional. He is also laid-back, disorganised, and non-judgemental. Out of chaos comes genius, but due to his lack of organisation he often has trouble applying his energy and finishing projects. He tends towards radical left and progressive politics.

He is quiet, reserved, and a thinker. He prefers to stay at home rather than go out and make friends. He has a rich inner fantasy life and is a fan of science fiction and fantasy. He is prone to eccentricity.

He prefers to work alone, but because he is disorganised and laid-back this can amplify his difficulty in getting things done.

He is polite, compassionate, and thoughtful. He goes out of his way to help people, and is sympathetic to the plight of people he has little in common with, sometimes to his own disadvantage.

He does not mind a messy environment and is naturally tolerant of the kind of chaos produced by animals and children. He is quiet and does not make friends easily, but he cares deeply for the friends he does make.

He is stable and content. He is often inspired creatively by unusual events and encounters.

He is laid-back about chaotic situations, and often does not care about doing the right thing. He seldom feels guilty about his behaviour.

He is a natural loner, but he is not particularly shy. He can take or leave companionship, and as he is selective in his friendships, sometimes people accuse him of snobbery.

As he is quite positive and stable, he would make a good parent. He is thoughtful and acts as a stabilising force to those around him.

He is quick-witted and able to think on his feet, and approaches problems from an unconventional point of view. He is an eccentric and a rebel. His ideas can be too quirky and different and this means that he is prone to failure. He likes alternative culture and has a unique sense of style. He is interested in ideas and blurred lines. He finds radical and extreme beliefs and behaviours attractive.

Conscientiousness – Low. Yuu is laid-back and disorganised. He is better at looking at the big picture, and isn't good at attention to detail. He isn't that concerned about his appearance to others. He likes eating junk food and cake and isn't worried about his diet or going to the gym. He has an untidy home in need of decoration. He tends to spend his money on fun things as soon as he gets it, instead of saving for the future. He isn't a hard worker, and is relaxed about his job. He doesn't judge himself or others. He is undisciplined and often late. He isn't very good at drawing boundaries and doesn't think things through before acting.

Extraversion – Low. Yuu is quiet and reserved. He prefers to stay at home and read books, and is often lost in a fictional world. He likes nature and animals. He spends a lot of time thinking, so when he does talk, he usually says something interesting. While he is independent, he isn't very assertive and tends to withdraw when people cross his personal boundaries. He can struggle to summon enthusiasm, especially regarding social events. He is happy in his own company and copes well with living alone. He gets tired easily and needs to spend time alone to recover. People can assume he is aloof or self-absorbed, though this is not always the case.

Agreeableness – High. Yuu is polite and compassionate. He often puts the needs of others in front of his own needs. He would make a wonderful parent or a nurse. He is able to empathise with others, and has a strong protective streak. Though feelings often drive him, if he is able to take a neutral stance, he can be an effective negotiator between people. Because he values politeness, he can take offense when others are not polite. Sometimes his compassion can be a problem when he directs it towards adults who need to stand on their own two feet. He can do too much for people and smother them with his kindness. He is prone to being manipulated and taken advantage of, because he always wants to help.

Neuroticism – Low. Yuu is emotionally stable and rarely suffers from negative feelings. He is largely content with life and tends to take bad news in his stride. His ability to cope well makes him a stabilising force for others. Sometimes he can get into trouble because he does not sense danger and assumes he is safer than he really is. He is prone to injuring himself through dares and sporting accidents.
